Hi Cyril,

Thanks for fixing this for Intel PT test.

Subject: [PATCH] tracing/intel_pt: Fix build on older userspace.

Older userspace linux headers do not have aux_* fields struct perf_event_mmap_page. This commit disables the test build if older headers were detected, the alternative would be adding a fallback definition to LTP but I doubt that it's worth the effort.
